Description
Venice: In Aedibvs Haeredvm Aldi, et Andreae Soceri, 1535. Second Aldine Edition. 165 x 98 mm. (6 1/2 x 3 7/8"). 16 p.l., 328, [12] leaves (last two blank); 47, [45] leaves. Edited by Onorato Fascitello. ELEGANT 18TH CENTURY RED STRAIGHT-GRAIN MOROCCO, GILT, BY BOZERIAN JEUNE (stamp-signed at foot of spine), covers framed by mirrored-tulip roll, daisies at corners, smooth spine in compartments with branches of ivy radiating from a central anular dot, all on the signature Bozerian mille-point background, turn-ins with Greek key roll, marbled endpapers, vellum flyleaf at front and back, all edges gilt. Woodcut Aldine device on title page and verso of last leaf. Four leaves with traces of old ink annotations. Ahmanson-Murphy 243; Renouard 113:2; Kallendorf 254; Adams L-22; Brunet III, 736. Spine perhaps slightly darkened (though difficult to tell because of the abundance of gilt hiding most of the leather), a hint of rubbing to extremities, perhaps pressed (though apparently not washed) at time of binding, but all of these just trivial imperfections; A VERY FINE COPY--clean, bright, and fresh, in an especially attractive binding that shows very little use. Beautifully bound by one of the great French binders of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, this is a lovely copy of the Aldine edition of Lactantius and Tertullian, two of the ablest defenders of the faith in the early centuries of Christianity. Lactantius (ca. 260-340), a teacher of rhetoric with an elegant flow of words (whence perhaps his name, "Milky," derives), was converted late in life to Christianity. His "Divine Institutions" presents the new religion as the most logical of creeds, drawing on the arguments of Stoic philosophy and aimed at an audience of educated pagans. The work was written during the Great Persecution, but references added by Lactantius to Constantine indicate that he lived to see the legalization of Christianity. Our volume also contains several shorter works by (or said to be by) Lactantius: "De Ira Dei," on the anger of God, a refutation of Epicureanism; "De Opificio Dei," on the handiwork of God, concentrating on the marvels of the human body and soul; and a poem, "Phoenix," describing the mythical bird, a work falsely attributed to our theologian. Lactantius was much admired in the Renaissance for his style, and he was one of the earliest authors to be printed, first appearing in an edition issued by Sweynheym and Pannartz in 1465. Our Aldine edition also includes the "Apology" of Tertullian (b. 150), the North African lawyer turned Christian defender, one of the earliest explanations of Christian belief and practice, containing valuable information on the simple ceremonies and organization of the primitive church. The Aldine Press first published an edition of Lactantius and Tertullian in 1515, but Renouard says that our second edition is much improved because the text here has been revised by the editor Fascitelli after examining several manuscripts in the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino. François Bozerian, generally called Bozerian jeune, was active in Paris from just after the turn of the century until 1818, and for much of that time, he worked with his elder brother Jean-Claude (1762-1840). The Bozerian workshop produced many fine bindings for clients that included the emperor Napoleon I, as well as leading bibliophiles of the day..

Description
London: Printed for T. Dormer, 1732. First edition. Modern quarter morocco over cloth with gilt to spine. Measuring 180 x 111mm and collating complete including frontis, folding game board, and concluding woodcut: [2], 62, [2]. From the collection of stage magician Ricky Jay, with his bookplate to upper pastedown. Top margin trimmed close with consistent loss to running headers and occasional loss to page numbers, with no other text effected. Pages somewhat toned with minor marginal chips, but otherwise unmarked. A scarce satire playing both on the rising popularity of get-rich-quick schemes and on the economics of the marriage market, the present is the only example to appear in the auction record. OCLC locates only twelve institutional copies. The present is the only example currently in trade. A Scheme for a New Lottery warns readers against the dangers posed by get-rich-quick schemes, targeting large-scale scams like the recently burst South Sea Bubble (sometimes called the world's first Ponzi scheme) and the pawn-broking swindle of the so-called Charitable Corporation. These scams were appealing to ordinary people at a time when few were "successful in using wealth from trade to found a landed family" (Rapp). Mocking both the conmen and the conned, A Scheme satirically proposes "Another Lottery, which may prove a general benefit to all concern'd; as there is no better Remedy for a Bite from a Mad Dog than the Liver of the Dog that bit." The proposed lottery, filled with abstruse rules and convoluted promises, ensures that the cycle continues. A Scheme also mocks marriage as a scam in which women could either make a wise match in a rich man or lose it all by marrying down. The lottery provides "Fifty Thousand tickets to be deliver'd to Maids, or Widows, or any that appear to be such" in the hopes of winning a financially stable husband represented by the tickets drawn. Such a match could be a good one: "A Ware-House Keeper with the Salary of a Hundred Pounds" or "the Governour." It could also, by virtue of lottery, be a loss: "2 Scotchmen, both Pedlars, 500 Broken Booksellers," and a range of other ruinous bounders are also listed as prizes. For those who desire an advance attempt, the folding game bound in the book invites blindfolded women to stick a pin in the board to claim their prize. The present copy was played (gently), with pin marks revealing a Blacksmith and a Valet de Chambre among those husbands won The popularity of A Scheme resulted in a reissue the same year, with a canceled title page as The Ladies Lottery and falsely attributed to Swift.

Meeting the Moment: Commentary on 2020 "Meeting the Moment" came together in the summer of 2020 as a response to the global pandemic and ongoing Black Lives Matter protests. Washington History challenged DC historians to look back into their research and ask: what could DC's past tell us about how we arrived at this moment? What are this moment's implications for our next steps as a community? These essays probe the old structures and experiences, dating back to the District's founding, that shape our present. .
